Practicing Peace

Peace On Your Wings is inspiring audiences throughout Hawaii. This musical created and presented by Ohana Arts tells the story of a group of Hawaii students and their efforts to promote peace and friendship, while keeping in mind the story of Sadako Sasaki, who became an international symbol for the effects of nuclear war after the bombing of Hiroshima, Japan and her effort to fold origami cranes to spread the message of peace.
